One of my best friends, Janie, lives in the Bass/Larry Creek area. The Hallelujah Hikers visited Larry Creek last Wednesday, starting our trek just behind Janie's ranch. Looking East, the Sapphire Mountain Range was blue in the distance & pasture land with small creeks & overflowing irrigation canals were all around us. Looking West, snowcapped tops of the Bitterroot Range peaked above the treeline at uneven intervals. The meadows held a different type of beauty than the canyons we often visit. We did climb some hillside slopes, but the trail led through flower-laden pastures most of the day. We could label this our Lupine Hike, as the Lupine was everywhere in full bloom. 
Brodiaea or Wild Hyacinth was common in some spots as well. These flowers signal that Spring is leaving & Summer has arrived with warmer temperatures, mosquitos, flies & the smell of fresh-mown hay. We praised the Lord for His creative variety.
